    Anyone else noticed that the "Full Sun" gadget (allows you to see a real time image of sunspots) has been causing SideBar to die lately? The SOHO website where it gets the images is in "CCD Bakeout" mode at the moment. If you click on the gadget to switch views it brings down SideBar. Sidebar restarts itself and the gadget appears to restart as well.

    I recently (last week) installed the final copy of Vista SP1 (from my MSDN subscription) not sure if it is related to that or not.

    Anyone else using this gadget?
